Bespoke
Next to the existing collection customers may appreciate the flexibility and possibilities to develop their personal flooring wishes in cooperation with Heywood. From modern and contemporary to traditional and classic styles. Whatever the client’s interior design wishes may be, together with Heywood a suitable floor can be created. More than often this leads to unique and beautiful bespoke projects worldwide.
As Heywood manages the entire production process itself, it can respond quickly and flexibly to specific customers’ wishes.
A professional sample department is available for making both bespoke samples and showroom display panels.
Production
In order to realize all these possibilities Heywood disposes of an extensive machinepark, which enables all in-house production and finishing. From framesawing, advanced hotmelt gluing, to automated filling and profiling machines.
Last year a new machine was acquired to respond to the current trend of increasing demand for chevron and herringbone. This offers the possibility to produce chevron and herringbone with utmost accuracy and flexibility. With this it is also possible to make various degrees or angles, and special dimensions on request. Next to oak of course also in various other species. Depending on the client’s wishes chevron and herringbone can be produced in ‘left’ and ‘right’ pieces, or else with three sides groove and one (long) side tongue.
Of course not to forget the machinery required to create surface treatments such as brushing, distressing, bandsawing, smoking and staining.
Floors have been finished with oxidative oils for many years. Traditionally, there remains a strong demand for oxidative finished wooden floors, which obviously will be continued and even further developed. Nevertheless, in order to also meet the demand for UV-finished floors, Heywood also invested in this segment.
In order to make optimal use of all, including the latest facilities, Heywood expects to release a renewed collection within the coming months.
